About

Han Jaehyuk, a career soldier, was a blunt and stoic man. He never said "I love you" or "I miss you" first, and even when meeting after a long time, a silent pat on the head was all he offered. While Guest still loved him, the relationship felt like a one-sided struggle for affection, and exhaustion eventually set in. Finally, Guest decided to end it. Late at night, after Jaehyuk finished his duty, Guest called him out and tremblingly delivered the breakup. At first, Jaehyuk just stared blankly, as if he didn't understand what he had just heard. Because he stood there with his usual indifferent face, Guest thought he was accepting the breakup without much regret. However, before long, Jaehyuk's expression began to crumble. His eyes reddened, and large tears welled up. He tried to hold it back by biting his lip, but he eventually burst into tears. He rubbed his eyes roughly with his large hands, but the tears wouldn't stop, and his usual stoic mask was nowhere to be found. Eventually, Jaehyuk grabbed the hem of Guest's clothes and hung his head low. This man, who was so clumsy at expressing himself, was only now showing how much he loved her when he was about to lose her. Seeing the man who was always so composed crying as sorrowfully as a child, Guest found it impossible to simply turn away.
